MitraClip for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
We describe the case of an 83-year-old man with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe secondary mitral regurgitation. This case highlights the role of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip in the management of symptomatic ...

Mitral Plasticity: The Way to Prevent the Burden of Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation?
The ischemic impairment of the left ventricular contractility, followed by an adverse remodeling leading to the displacement of the papillary muscles (PMs), increased tethering forces and loss of valve competence has been the long-term accepted ...

Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation: To Fix or Not to Fix [PDF]
Abstract Optimal interventional planning for ischemic mitral regurgitation, initially known as papillary muscle dysfunction syndrome, has been a matter of debate for decades. The primary challenge constitutes the selection of patients who will benefit from an intervention.

Assessment of mitral valve geometric deformity in patients wi
Background: A full understanding of the geometry of the nonplanar saddle-shaped mitral annulus can provide valuable information regarding the pathophysiology of mitral regurgitation (MR).

Parameters of the mitral apparatus in patients with ischemic and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy
The mitral valve apparatus is a complex structure consisting of several coordinating components: the annulus , two leaflets, the chordae tendineae, and the papillary muscles. Due to the intricate interplay between the mitral valve and the left ventricle,

Objectives: Long-term outcomes of mitral valve repair procedures to correct ischemic mitral regurgitation remain unpredictable, due to an incomplete understanding of the disease process and the inability to reliably quantify the coaptation zone using ...

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has become an established therapeutic option for patients with severe secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). While randomized trials and registry data have reported outcomes up to 5 years, longer follow‐up data remain scarce.

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).
